Auto-Movement for Beginners

Book excerpt: Auto-movement, i.e. the non-consciously controlled movements of the body, comprise a large part of the techniques used in magic: the pendulum, the divining rod, automatic writing, glossolalia (speaking in languages one has not learned), and several forms of telekinesis. Auto-movement also occurs in inconspicuous places such as drawing the "right" tarot card - which, after all, is not consciously controlled. There are also some forms of auto-movement, where the movement has not been decided by the one who moves, as in sleepwalking, hypnosis, stigmata, possession, etc. ... and in advertising, which also leads people to do something that they have not decided themselves. There are also some collective forms of auto-movement such as the crop circles. Auto-movement is primarily a "monitor" for the subconscious mind. Since telepathy is an ability of the subconscious mind, auto-movement can also be used for telepathic perception. Correspondingly, auto-movement is also helpful in the use of telekinesis, which is an ability of the subconscious to act. All in all, a closer look at the various forms of automatic, non-consciously controlled movements, as in scrying, results in a much better understanding of the psyche and a more effective approach to magic, as well as some new techniques, such as "sending out one's own body", in which one's own body can perform tasks that would not be possible in normal consciousness.
